If by racists you mean political pundits then yes.

I think you're seeing a dog whistle where none exists.

Oh I think I commented on the wrong comment.

Or they could have just created the law that said “the child was conceived under wedlock, the husband is on the hook.”

To make someone the father they have to inform them of it. There's nothing stopping the father from flying the coop once divorced. While the proceedings are in progress, the judge has the right to keep the father to be present. And this was more of a concern when you could disappear and start a new life by moving across town.

People cheated for sure, but if you were married you were simply on the hook for the offspring even if it wasn't yours.

I'm not saying the law is good, I'm saying it made sense for the time it was passed in. Now that we have genetic testing to confirm paternity or should be repealed.

It's not a racist dog whistle. It's an accurate representation of the polls.

Dude that's the question they try to answer in the article.

That's my point. It doesn't have to look nearly that good.

There was no genetic testing for paternity back then. If you weren't married you could contest paternity.

Why do people think this is a good idea? Gaza isn't large. It can be leveled with traditional artillery fire (and it has domestic manufacturing of artillery shells). Force Israel to abandon precision munitions and Rafa will look like Bahkmut.

Latinos aren't a monolith. They don't vote like a monolith. The article gets close to realizing that, but falls short. At the end of the day Latinos vote R for the same reason White people do.

Nah that bill is pretty bunk and hopefully it gets thrown out super quick. My point is more that the things advocated for in these protests are pretty vile and heartless.

Isn't that something he normally admits to (or at least he did back when he was with 538). That the value of the "Horse race" election reporting was essentially nil as long as the percentage of undecided voters was greater than the margin (+error) between the candidates.

I don't think that feature exists yet.

But more inquisitively why do you dislike Silver? He's generally been the "gold standard" when it comes to data driven political analysis.

This is Nate Silver, his takes are essentially always more nuanced and data driven than that. I'd expect some random MSNBC/CNN talking head to say that; not Silver.

Also they'll find Hamas selling aid that's suppose to be given away for free and starving people intentionally to keep it's coffers full....

Criticism of Israel is one thing, but calling for "Oct 7th every day", calling for religious war, openly backing not just Palestine but Hamas, saying Hamas I love your rockets isn't a criticism of Israel, is an endorsement of Hamas.

Probably the latter. Almost nothing that sucked today sucked less 20, 40, 60, 80 etc... years ago. They almost universally sucked more. We're just more aware.

For example, cops have always been beating black people; but that wasn't common knowledge for most until recently.

Ahh fair enough. Hope you have a great day.

Not just for a sociopath. Anti-air is expensive (table with some options. A patriot cost like $3M/pop. If a missile was going to hit an uninhabited area choosing not to intercept makes sense.

That's why DARPA keeps working on DEWs.
